Procedure

Methyl iodide (0.012 mol) was added to an aqueous solution prepared from 5-chloro-6-methyl-4-thiouracil (0.01 mol) and 0.725 M KOH (25 ml) and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 h. The solid precipitate formed was collected and was recrystallized from isopropanol; yield 65%, m.p. 268°.
